See you ended up using the big cousin of my tonka toy.

Diesel power beats person power every time.

Woo Hoo slabs gone and new slab and shed incoming , keep up the progress reports Wendy

[Groggy]

If some councils give a rebate for installing water tanks, surely you should get a rebate for putting in the shed, it's only there to catch rainwater to fill the tank anyway

(reckon they'll buy that?)

[Honorary Bloke]

Yes, Wendy, don't leave us panting and wondering. Keep posting the piccies as you go.

And congrats on finally getting your own shed.

She must be a happening thing... I got the letter in the mail confirming that the home owner's builder insurance has gone through successfully, but then, it is insurance so may be they take the money and check later???

Either way, I've got it soooo organised that I doubt there will be anything to block it, knock on wood, tap on wood, bang on wood....



Yeah, trust HWMNBO to come up with the best, easiest and cheapest way to get the slab and junk gone - He's just brilliant!! But Pleeeeease don't tell him I told you so


Rebate for the shed?? Sigh, I wish But, it will be a good place to hang a raintank from, even if just for the garden.

Cheers

Hows the shed building going wendy ??? you still didn't show us where you put the lathe while the demolishing was going on.

[RufflyRustic]

Hi Rodent,

Confession - I do not own a lathe, nor am I ready to just yet. I know I will love turning so much that I'd be likely to leave the cabinetry behind and I love that way too much to give it up at present .

All the stuff that I had jampacked is now in my workarea under the porch roof - it's the last photo in the first post of this thread. I still can't believe how much I had in that little space

No progress to report at present I'm still waiting for council approval.
It's been 2 weeks, 2 days and about 15 hours since my last fix of woodwork.
I've decided that I can try ( ) to be patient until the end of April for the Shed to completed. If it's not done by the end of April, I will get very, v e r y cranky.


cheers
Wendy

just send hubby to work a few times with nothing in his sandwiches . And a note on the kitchen bench when he gets home .And no you wont give up your cabinetry (well initialy maybe )but think of how you can enhance it turned feet ,finials ,split turned facings and railings.So much to do so little time and money.

[Wild Dingo]

UPDATE!!! Come on Wendy whats a happenin?? shed up yet? you moved in? hubby decided you dont need that much space after all and has commandeered it to make a brewery?

COME ON!! Suspence is killin me

[RufflyRustic]

Hi Wild Dingo,
Nothing is happening! Not a darn thing!! Still waiting for council approval. and you think the suspence is killing you!!!!

Cheers
Wendy

[RufflyRustic]

Yippeee!!!!! The Shed now has Council Approval!!!!! Yippeee!!!


And that's all the info there is at present. More later this week when I get the estimates of when the cement (hehehe) ok, concrete gets poured, when the kit is expected and when the building days might be.

cheers
Wendy
